1,000  shingles,  laid  4  inches  to  the  weather,  will  cover  100 
square  feet  of  surface,  and  5  lbs.  of  shingle  nails  will  fasten  them 
on. 


One-fifth  more  siding  and  flooring  is  needed  than  the  number 
•of  square  feet  of  surface  to  be  covered,  because  of  the  lap  in  the 
siding  and  matching. 

1,000  laths  will  cover  70  yards  of  surface,  and  11  lbs.  of  lath 
nails  will  nail  them  on;  8  bushels  of  good  lime,  16  bushels  of 
sand,  and  1  bushel  of  hair,  will  make  enough  good  mortar  to 
plaster  100  square  yards. 

A  cord  of  stone,  8  bushels  of  lime,  and  a  cubic  yard  of  sand, 
will  lay  100  cubic  feet  of  wall. 

Five  courses  of  brick  will  lay  1  foot  in  height  on  a  chimney; 
16  bricks  in  a  course  will  make  a  flue  4  inches  wide  and  12  inches 
long,  and  8  bricks  in  a  course  will  make  a  flue  8  inches  wide  and 
16  inches  long.

USEFUL  RECIPES. 

1.  fTo  Remove  Oil  Paint  from  Glass:  Coat  glass  lightly  with 

brown  soft  soap  and  let  it  remain  one-half  hour  before 
wiping. 

2.  To  Preserve  Fence  Posts:  Mix  powdered  charcoal  with  boiled 

linseed  oil  to  consistency  of  common  paint  and  apply  with 
brush. 

3.  To  Fireproof  Wood:  Mix  y,  peck  fine  sand,  %  peck  finely 

screened  wood  ashes,  %  peck  slacked  lime  with  burned 
linseed  oil  to  form  a  soft  dough ;  give  one  light  and  two 
heavy  coats.  This  coating  will  harden  like  rock  in  water, 
and  is  good  for  water  tanks. 

4.  To  Drill  and  Cut  Glass:  Use  a  good  hard  tempered  steel 

drill  or  saw,  keeping  cutting  edge  moist  with  a  solution  of 
turpentine  and  camphor.  To  round  edges,  use  sharp  round 
file. 

5.  To  Dry  Newly  Plastered  Room:  Burn  a  fair  sized  fire  of 

charcoal  in  the  rooms  for  48  hours,  closing  same  well :  after 
airing  for  15  minutes  the  room  can  be  occupied  without 
injury  to  health. 

6.  To  Remove  Odor  of  Fresh  Paint:  Burn  a  few  handsful  of 

juniper  berries  in  an  open  fire  and  close  the  room  for  24 
hours,  when  the  air  will  be  pure  and  sweet. 

7.  To  Keep  Glass  from  Frosting:  Wipe  slightly  with  oil  of 

glycerine.

SPOKANE  ORNAMENTAL  IRON  &  WIRE  WORKS. 


PAINTING. 

For  outside  wood-work,  paint  made  from  white  lead  ground  in 
linseed  oil  is  most  used.  If  the  oil  is  raw,  or  unboiled,  dryer  is 
added;  if  boiled,  no  dryer  is  necessary.  Not  less  than  four  coats 
should  be  applied — -five  are  better. 

Paint,  ready  mixed,  put  up  in  cans  or  kegs,  may  be  procured 
from  manufacturers  or  dealers.  These  paints  have  to  be  thinned 
by  adding  1  pint  of  oil  to  about  2^  lbs.  of  paint.  When  thinned, 
1  lb.  will  cover  about  2  square  yards  of  first-coat,  3  yards  of 
second,  and  4  yards  of  each  subsequent  coat;  or  1%  lbs.  to  the 
square  yard  will  be  required  for  4  coats,  and  1%  lbs.  for  5  coats. 

For  inside  work,  either  white  lead  or  oxide  of  zinc  is  used,  and 
for  good  work  4  coats  are  necessary. 

For  iron  exposed  to  the  weather,  or  the  action  of  water,  graphite 
paint  of  finely  ground  graphite  mixed  with  pure  linseed  oil,  is  best. 

Iron  inclosed  in  cement  should  not  be  painted. 

Plastered  walls  should  stand  a  year  before  painting.  ' 

Painting  is  measured  by  the  square  yard,  girding  every  part 
of  the  work  that  is  covered  by  paint  and  allowing  an  addition  to 
thp  actual  surface  for  the  difficulty  of  covering  deep  quirk  of 
mouldings  and  for  “cutting  in’’  as  in  sash  and  shelving,  or  where 
there  is  a  change  of  color,  on  same  work. 

Washes. 

For  outside  wood  work.  In  a  tight  bushel,  slack  half  a  bushel  of 
fresh  lime  by  pouring  over  it  boiling  water  sufficient  to  cover  it  4 
or  5  inches  deep,  stir  until  slacked;  add  2  lbs.  of  sulphate  of  zinc 
dissolved  in  water,  add  water  enough  to  bring  all  to  the  consist¬ 
ency  of  thick  whitewash. 

For  inside  work.  Add  2  quarts  of  thin  size  to  a  pailful  of  wash 
just  before  using.  The  common  practice  of  mixing  salt  with  white¬ 
wash  should  not  be  permitted. 

For  brick  or  stone  work.  Slack  14  bushel  of  lime,  as  before,  in 
a  barrel;  then  fill  the  barrel  %  full  of  water  and  add  a  bushel  of 
hydraulic  cement;  add  3  lbs.  sulphate  of  zinc  dissolved  in  water. 
These  washes  may  be  colored  by  adding  powdered  ochre,  umber, 
etc. 


AMOUNT  OF  PAINT  REQUIRED  FOR  A  GIVEN  SURFACE. 

It  is  impossible  to  give  a  rule  that  will  apply  in  all  cases,  as 
the  amount  varies  with  the  kind  and  thickness  of  the  paint,  the 
kind  of  wood  or  other ,  material  to  which  if  is  applied,  the  age  of 
the  surface,  etc.  The  following  is  an  approximate  rule:  Divide 
the  number  of  square  feet  of  surface  by  200.  The  result  will  be 
the  number  of  gallons  of  liquid  paint  required  to  give  two  coats ; 
or,  divide  by  18  and  the  result  will  be  the  number  of  pounds  of 
pure  ground  white  lead  required  to  give  three  coats. 


HOW  TO  KILL  GREASE  SPOTS  BEFORE  PAINTING. 

Wash  over  smoky  or  greasy  parts  with  saltpetre,  or  very  thin 
lime  white-wash.  If  soap-suds  are  used,  they  must  be  washed  off 
thoroughly,  as  they  prevent  the  paint  from  drying  hard. 


CLAP-BOARDS. 

One  bur  die  laid  3%  inches  to  the  weather  will  cover  2G  square 
feet.

How  to  Test  Quality  of  Steel. — Good  tool  steel,  with  a  white 
heat,  will  fall  to  pieces;  with  bright  red  heat  will  crumble  under 
the  hammer;  with  middling  heat  may  be  drawn  to  a  needle-point. 

To  test  hardening  qualities  draw  under  a  low  heat  to  a  gradu¬ 
ally  tapered  square  point  and  plunge  into  cold  water;  if  broken 
point  will  scratch  glass,  the  quality  is  good. 

To  test  tenacity,  a  hardened  piece  will  be  driven  into  cast-iron 
by  a  hardened  hammer — if  poor,  will  be  crumbled.  Excellence 
will  be  in  proportion  to  tenacity  in  hard  state.  Soft  steel  of  good 
quality  gives  a  curved  line  fracture  and  uniform  gray  texture. 
Tool  steel  should  be  dull  silver  color,  uniform,  entirely  free  from 
sparkling  qualities.

HORSE  POWER  OF  TRANSMISSION  ROPE  AT  VARIOUS 

SPEEDS. 

We  give  herewith  a  table  of  the  horse-power  of  driving  ropes, 
and  the  diameter  of  pulleys  that  should  be  used  for  this  purpose. 
The  table  takes  into  consideration  the  effects  of  the  centrifugal 
force,  so  that  the  strain  on  the  rope  is  constant  on  the  driving 
side  in  transmitting  the  tubular  power,  no  matter’  what  the  speed 
may  be.  We  are  aware  that  many  engineers  recommend  a  much 
larger  horse-power  than  is  given  in  this  table,  but  we  believe  the 
estimates  here  given  are  advisable  except  in  temporary  installa¬ 
tions.

STRENGTH  OF  MANILA  AND  HEMP  ROPES. 

The  strength  of  rope  is  very  irregular,  much  depending  on  the 
quality  of  the  fibre  used  and  the  solidity  in  which  the  rope  is  put 
together.  For  instance,  3%  inch  circumference  soft-laid  rope  will 
nor  measure  over  3-inch  circumference  hard-laid. 

Our  tests  of  the  various  makes  of  rope,  from  the  manila  fibre 
show  about  the  following  average  maximum  strength: 


3  inch  circumference  soft-laid . 7,300  lbs 

3  inch  circumference  medium-laid.  .  .  .8.000  lbs. 
3  inch  circumference  hard-laid . 9,000  lbs.

SPOKANE  ORNAMENTAL  IRON  &  WIRE  WORKS. 


After  many  years  of  experience  in  the  fence  business  we  are 
warranted  in  saying  that  it  is  only  a  man’s  folly  to  use  any¬ 
thing  than  ir  >11  in  the  construction  of  fences.  We  have  en¬ 
deavored  to  select  a  number  of  choice  patterns,  made  entirely 
of  wrought  steel  pickets  and  wire  and  at  a  scale  of  prices 
which  will  substantiate  the  above  fully,  taking  lasting  qualities 
into  consideration. 

When  writing  for  prices,  give  number  of  fence,  length,  height,  size 
and  number  of  gates  and  slopes,  if  any;  also  location  of  gates, 
when  ordering,  and  state  whether  plain  or  ornamental  top  is 
desired.  All  fences  are  painted  black  unless  otherwise  ordered. 
Our  standard  post  No.  1175  or  1177  are  included  in  the  price, 
but  heavy  cast  iron  post  No.  1176  are  $4.00  each,  net,  extra. 
See  list  on  page  91.  All  prices  are  made  on  30  and  36  inches 
high  for  the  fence  proper,  and  when  erected  will  stand 
34  or  40  inches  high.  Special  heights  to  order.  All  of  our

TO  FIND  WEIGHT  OF  TIMBER  WORK. 

Timber  Flooring. 

Rule.  Multiply  breadth  in  feet  by  length  in  feet  by  thickness 
in  inches  and  by  one  of  the  following  factors  according  to  ma¬ 
terial:  For  elm,  use  3.5  lbs.:  for  yellow  pine,  3.42;  for  white 

pine,  2.97;  for  dry  oak,  4.04. 

To  Find  Weight  of  Timber  Beams,  Posts,  and  Joists: 

Rule.  Multiply  length  in  feet  by  breadth  and  depth  in  inches, 
and  the  product  by  one  of  the  following  factors:  For  elm,  2.92; 
yellow  pine,  2.85;  white  pine,  2.47;  dry  oak,  4.04.

If  the  sap  of  green  timber  be  prevented  from  escaping  at  the 
ends  of  the  sticks,  as  in  the  case  of  girders,  etc.,  enclosed  air¬ 
tight  in  brick-work  or  masonry,  its  fermentation  will  produce 
dry  rot.  The  painting  of  green  timber  conduces  to  the  same  end. 
Alternate  exposure  to  water  and  air  produces  wet  rot. 

In  a  free  circulation  of  dry  air,  timber  will  endure  for  centuries, 
if  not  attacked  by  worms.

SLATING. 

A  square  of  slate  or  slating  is  100  superficial  feet. 

In  measuring,  the  width  of  the  eaves  is  allowed  at  the  widest 
part.  Hips,  valleys,  and  cutting  are  to  be  measured  lineal,  and 
6  inches  width  extra  is  allowed. 

The  thickness  of  slates  range  from  3-16  to  5-16  of  an  inch,  and 
their  weight  varies  from  2.6  to  4.5  lbs.  per  square  foot. 

The  lap  of  slates  varies  from  2  to  4  inches.  The  standard  is 
assumed  to  be  3  inches. 

To  compute  the  number  of  slates  of  a  given  size  required  per 
squares : 

Subtract  3  inches  from  the  length  of  the  slate,  multiply  the 
remainder  by  the  width  and  divide  by  2.  Divide  14.400  by  the 
number  so  found,  and  the  result  will  be  the  number  of  slates 
required. 

The  pitch  of  a  slate  roof  should  not  be  less  than  1  inch  height 
to  4  inches  length. 

Dimensions  of  slates  and  number  required  to  a  square:

SHINGLES. 

The  best  shingles  are  of  white  cedar.  When  of  good  quality 
they  will  last  40  to  50  years  in  our  northern  states.  Cypress  and 
white  pine  are  much  used  for  shingles,  but  will  not  last  half  as 
long  as  white  cedar. 

Shingles  are  packed  250  to  the  bundle,  or  4  bundles  to  1000. 

One  bundle  16-inch  shingles  will  cover  30  square  feet. 

One  bundle  18-inch  shingles  will  cover  33  square  feet. 

When  laid  5%  inches  to  the  weather,  5  lbs.  4d  or  3 %  lbs.  3d 
nails  will  lay  1000  shingles.
